SJO-SFO doesn't seem to exist (or does it!)...otherwise I'd book it. SJO-LGB is 3001 miles from the AA timetable...
Also, MIA-RNO mileage was per the AA timetable, which I'll take as gospel for their mileage calculator...</font>
The AA timetable distances are horribly wrong. Usually with direct flights it quotes the A-B-C mileage, not the A-C mileage you actually receive. Sometimes they are just wrong (had 700 miles for GRU-GIG which is ~200). With MIA-RNO, MIA-DFW-RNO is approximately the same as MIA-RNO, hence it appears correct. I always use the great circle calculator or my own utility to calculate distance, it maybe off by a few miles but it's a better approximate.
SJO-LGB would earn 2704 miles, not 3000+
